Wedding Functions
Mehndi
The festivities kicked off with a vibrant poolside Mehndi function called ‘Kantha Amor’! Inspired by the idyllic beauty of Capri, one of the couple’s favorite holiday destinations, the brunch function blended the colorful influences of the Italian countryside with the intricate detailing of Kantha stitching sourced from local bazaars. Vivid pink bougainvillea flowers and exotic purple blooms were interspersed with pops of yellow, handwoven and embroidered drapes, cushions, stools and more that painted a colorful picture against the pristine white architecture of the hotel and rugged mountain backdrop.

Sangeet
The regal facade of the hotel was the perfect setting for the ‘Ishq Sufiyana’ themed Sangeet night which drew its decor inspiration from the majesty of Hawa Mahal and crafts and the aura of the Middle East. Carpets, rugs, accent cushions and throws gave a touch of contemporary styling to the off-white, silver and blue backdrop of the property. Satisfying the couple’s penchant for all things luxe, candles, hinging lamps, and fairy lights that cast a soft, ethereal glow over the entire evening, while cream drapes gently billowing in the breeze completed the setting for the intimate soiree.

Haldi
Aptly named ‘Jaipur Galli’, the traditional Haldi function was designed with a contemporary twist, inspired by Shivani’s love for the local flavors of Jaipur. Soft, printed linens and mismatched colors were used to create a bohemian lounge seating along with hand-painted trunks, brass vases and elements with bright flowers and earthy props.

Wedding
Seeking inspiration from the majestic beauty of the Char Bagh gardens, Shivani & Karan’s wedding was innately royal with a touch of old-world charm. The sprawling hotel lawns were divided into four segments with different kinds of lounge seatings for the guests. Plush crimson drapes juxtaposed with traditional Indian flowers to create a rich ambience elevated with vintage brass and silver paraphernalia, candles, flowers and more. A play of lights with a mix of diya jaalis, fairy lights and chandeliers added an ethereal glow, the flower-festooned mandap towered high against the stunning palatial backdrop of the hotel.
